Home truths
One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
There's an unfenced pond in the garden here. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times. It is encouraged that you feed the fish during your stay – there is fish food available.
One of the en-suite bedrooms is located in a separate garden annexe.
There are four steps leading up to the front door here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.

Popular with young affluent families for its laid-back, friendly, unfussy vibe, open green spaces and ever-growing foodie scene, Clapham offers you the opportunity to have a local, village-feel experience, away from the hordes of tourists.
